Pros

Only people, colleagues next to you

Cons

Everything, the worst management ever. They take to promote unprofessional people who lick their shoes. There is zero chance to be promoted if you work over the target. Booking in Lille is a imaginary world of awful management who likes to be licked. Guys if you you are smart and hope to achieve carrier by your work, definitely this awful place is not for you. Only she's lickers can can be promoted.

Pros

Free fruits, and that's about it!

Cons

Where to start. They advertise the job as helping clients all over the world and basically the job consists of handling complaints on complaints, and attends useless team huddle (but in the same time it's the only way to take a break from the phone). The Toronto management is pretty terrible, some of them had a board where all the results were there to see, so you know who is weak (pretty terrible management technique). There is a no phone, no talking to people from other team policy which again is pretty terrible, especially when the the supervisors and managers are using theirs. The managers are really judgmental (not only on the work, but on people in general). They fired a gay guy that was harassed by a girl that they also fired at the end because she was pretty much a psychopath. They fired another girl because she was complaining of her supervisor being racist. It was my first experience working in Canada and it was horrible.

Pros

Free Fruit,location and friends. We used to have cereals now we dont!

Cons

Where we do start!!! 1- Awful conditions,terrible night allowance (lowest possible). All year we have been told by our TM and SM's that night allowance was going up but when we were handed our pay reviews, we only had 1.8% and nothing more on night allowance. When we asked to our TM about this, the response we got was "If you don't like it, you know where the door is!" and then when we went to our SM about that response, we had " you are free to apply elsewhere if you like"!. ALL YEAR we have been told that we were going to get a pay increase. We are being taken for granted! Management is awful! Phone agents know more than managers and i have never heard anything like it. Experience means nothing, knowledge means nothing.If you know a manager and call that manager a "FRIEND", you are guaranteed to become a manager. All year we heard, we are investing in you! Yes sounds about right with 1.8%. And then LT mentions, Booking.com Discount and Gift Voucher that was given... We all know this was done because of Booking.com not because of BookingGo. LT team only care about themselves. You cant reach to them! They will never ever support you even in your hard times. They say "Come and talk to us or email us" and when we do, we get ignored.

Hiya and thanks for your feedback, although I'm disappointed with what you have to say. I'm sorry if you were given incorrect information re the night shift allowance. We are always looking at ways that we can improve pay and conditions but this has not been on the agenda for some time (although that's not to say we shouldn't look at). We have invested millions in our colleagues this year, including the pay review which was inline with inflation. The Booking benefit of 1000 Euros a year is a great perk, the gift card of 300 Euros tax free was also a great gift. Yes we did these because we're part of Booking.com but I'm not going to apologise for that, that's a good thing. In addition we paid for the statutory pension increase this year and will match your contributions up to 10%. We also increased holiday entitlement. These are not the actions of a business that does not appreciate its colleagues. I certainly do not want colleagues to leave and I'm sorry if your expectations have not been managed well, I will pick this up with the LT at SLH. Thanks again for your feedback Ryan
